I wondered if anyone had any experience with a controller that they used while docked? If the 20-30 8bitdo is as good as a one of the premium controllers, id prefer to save some money, since I don't own a console. If thought I'd ask the community, to see if anyone had any experience to share!

I asked a somewhat similar question last week and got a strong recommendation for the 8BitDo Ultimate Controller.

I love this controller but I find I need to use its phone app to swap the button config from Switch to PC each time I go between, which is annoying. maybe i’m doing it wrong.

The controller supports having three profiles saved to it, are you able to make one of them a switch profile and switch between them?
